Transformers doesn't have its original song either, not even in the
closing credits. |

How did it go? Speed of lightning, roar of thunder, fighting all who
steal and plunder, Underdog....
Something like that?
Will Polly sing "Oh where, oh where has my Underdog gone..."?

Uh, he doesn't even talk in rhyme in this one, I wouldn't hold out hope
for subtleties...
This is a movie that surely fails, they can't be bothered with small
details. -_-

The great inward death spiral of intellectual content in movies
designed for the general public continues to pick up velocity.
The following seems to be the progression...
Initially, movies are based on literature, plays and original
concepts.
In time, this transmutes into movies based on television shows, TV
commercials, comic books, theme park rides, and toys.
The bottom level of the cycle will doubtless be movies based on sugary
breakfast cereals and mass distribution candy.
Anyone for "Count Chocula Vs. Skittles," starring Steve Carell/Will
Farrell? >> Stay informed about: The Underdog trailer: Are They Mad? |

BTW,
When criminals in this world appear,
And break the laws that they should fear,
And frighten all who see or hear,
The cry goes up both far and near for
Underdog,
Underdog,
Underdog,
Underdog.
Speed of lightning, roar of thunder,
Fighting all who rob or plunder
Underdog, Underdog.
When in this world the headlines read
Of those who's hearts are filled with greed
And rob and steal from those in need.
To right this wrong with blinding speed goes
Underdog,
Underdog,
Underdog,
Underdog.
Speed of lightning, roar of thunder,
Fighting all who rob or plunder
Underdog, Underdog. >> Stay informed about: The Underdog trailer: Are They Mad? |

Brats and baby can't buy licensed Classic Media marketing.

I haven't seen it yet. Is it live-action or animated?

Live, with some CGI enhancements. Eww!
Still, what else could they do. The original was well-suited to TV and
probably shoulda stayed there. >> Stay informed about: The Underdog trailer: Are They Mad? |

coming attractions. >> Stay informed about: The Underdog trailer: Are They Mad? |
